I had never thought of doing this sort of test to help me decide what to do next, but this was surprisingly useful. It made me think about what I could do and what I shouldn't.
Mike
If I had done the values assessment before I made a really bad career choice, I would have made a better decision. It seems obvious now to think about the culture of the employer but I didn't have a way of bringing this to life.
Sandra
It seems like every employer now wants you to be aware of how you work best. The combination of personality, leadership and team tests really helped me prepare for my recent interviews.

Personality Test and Explanation
Personality Test and Explanation

Find out how to leverage your strengths

Our personality test is based on the work carried out by Carl Jung and then extended by Isabell Myers and Katherine Briggs. It identifies which of the 16 personalities best fits your profile, and highlights your strengths.

The terminology of the different personality types is simply explained and is consistent with that used in many organisations. The assessment output identifies career implications for you as well as suggesting potential job titles, and work environments where you are likely to do best.

Values Assessment
Values Assessment and Explanation

Understand how your values influence where you should work

Each of us has their own set of values, and in the work context these values influence how well we feel that we fit the organisation where we work.

This assessment considers 8 key categories of personal values and then identifies the types of organisational culture where there is most likely to be a match. The 'same' job will be very different across different teams / organisations; understanding how your values match to a given role is a strong predictor to success.

Take our values assessment to help you find the right roles. Combine with our other assessments to build your Character Map™, differentiate from the crowd, and demonstrate your self-awareness.
